Repertoire from previous seasons

  • This table is a scrollable / sortable / searchable list of all pieces performed by the VPO in past seasons.
    • Click the arrows to arrange by that column
  • The “composed” column was done by Chat-GPT, so may have errors or be missing.
  • The date “performed” should always be correct.
  • The concerto competition repertoire are most likely to be missing dates of composition
  • There are some misspellings (Shoatakovich vs Shostakovich) and duplications (Symphony No. 1 vs Symphony #1 vs Symphony # 1)

Visualizing previous seasons

  • This shows all the music that has a date of composition. So typos and similar won’t appear.
  • Colours correspond to composer (though there are lots of composers)
  • If you hover over a point, the composition will display.
  • You can also Zoom and Pan the graphic
  • Lots of Romantic music, especially this season
    • Everything is between Nabucco (1842) and Sibelius #2 (1902), except “The Sea and Bells”, the Chinese Concerti, and Prokofiev Piano Concerto
